Southern Agricultural.
Summer Feeding Of Hogs.

The tastes and habits of the average
Southern farmer and the universal
demand of the negro population, es-
pecially our farm laborers, have
made the hog one of the most i'm
portant or the list of domestic ami
mails Bacon and lard are recognized
as two of the mcst indispensable ar
ticles in the farmers cuisine. While
we do not believe that this fondness
for hog products as staples and acces-
sories to our bill of fare is founded
either in reason or awholesome regard
for health, or that such coarse and
heating food is demanded by our sys-
TENS. yet the fact can not be ignored.
We will have bacon at any cost; and
many man, if compelled to go with
out it for day. imagines that he is
enduring great privation.
1t behooves the farmer, then, who
must have bacon-who considers it one
of the indispensables-to give his
hogs the attention that the Importance
of the dead carcass demands. 1t is a
very common and very thriftless and
improbable practice to give very little
attention to the coming porker in the
spring, summer and fall, and lavish all
attention and food on the maturing
few weeks preceding killing time.
This is the common practice all over
the South and largely in the West.
The true policy is to push them from
the start even while yet pigs,
the object being to induce a
thrifty, even growth and devel-
opment of bone, muscle and stom-
ach. The more rapid and healthful
the growth the earlier will the animal
attain the size and weight desired, and
the cheaper the bacon. The wheat
and oat pastures are now open; and
while the fallen and shattered grain
and the grass will greatly help the
growth and pro gress of pigs towards
bacon, we ought to provide additional
resources. The grain win soon be
consumed, and the grass often fails
under severe drought, and the hogs viii
receive check which involves loss
unless other provision is made. There
ought to be patches or small fields OF
sorghum, collards, Spanish peanuts,
etc, from which daily rations of sue
culent food may be drawn, or into
which the hogs may be turned
to root for themselves Sorghum cane,
Indian corn (stalks and ears) and col
lards, in addition to fruit from the
orchard, will afford successive sup
ply of the very best and most healthful
food for hogs. Cold weather is not fa-
vorable to fattening and is only con-
venient for saving the pork. The hogs
ought to be ready for the knife by the
beginning Of December. We firmly
believe if this plan of feeding regularly
and literally on the most natural (and
consequently healthfuD foods be prac-
ticed, plenty of clean water and clean
quarters be provided, and all conta-
gion and infection be guarded against.

The Pittsburgh Stochman calls at.
tention to churning by stating that if
the cream be made too warm the globules
will burst and the oil mingle with the
water in the cream and rise to the top.
Such cream will come to butter very
slowly, if it come at all. Boiling water
is too hot to use in the cream; 66 . is as
warm as the cream should be made, as
the butter will be white and soft. Keep
the cream as near 60o as possible while
waiting for the charn.

stated, these leguminous plants baya
peculiar power of assimilatinc thu 1.

thus deposit these food clemens ip,s
where the crops of corn, cotton, wheat

in which the food will be most reaaiI,
available. This is, in short, and wi,hi
out the use of scientific terms and q
plantations, the theory of the imurovsI
ment of the soil by the growing N
renovating crops. 1t is just the process y
that nature has been carrying on tal
ages, and which has resulted n
the formation of soils fit for the erov,s|
of the present high order of plants, n
remains for man to continue the prel
cess and accelerate the rate by the sub|

growth of weeds and wild plants It'd
ordinary crops grown upon our farn|
would carry on this process Of soil in4|
provement were it not for the fact thai
such crops are largely removed from
the soil; .and for the additional reason
in the case of summer-plowed crops
such as corn and cotton-the soil 4
exposed to the fierce heat of the sun
and the teaching effects Of rains
There is no doubt that suc1
cession of crops of small grain on thd
sam land would steadily improve TIL
soil, provided no part Of the crop n
removed. 1t would be exactly nature
process that is particularly illustrstel
on the treeless prairies Of the West
The same process goes on when worn d

REAL ESTATE AND BUILDING.

Messrs. Fitch, Fox and Brown, the agents
for the "ClifTbourne" estate, on Washing.
ton Heights, which was recently purchased
by Presbrey & Green through Mrs. May
Cole Baker from Miss L. II. Ober, late man.
oger OF the Boston Ideal Opera Company,
have divided the whole eighteen acres into
building lots, the majoriiy Of which are 80
by l25 feet The prices range from ten
cents foot to sixty cents, the popular
price being forty cents. so far only six Of
these lots have been sold. The streets have
been named Clay street, buchanan street
and Lanler avenue.
Gardiner G. Hubbards subdivision,
known as Belair Heights, for which the
same firm arc the agents, Is being improved
by Mr.. Hubbard at the immense cost OF $50,
900, Not caring to wait longer for the Gov
eminent to improve the streets running
through his property, Mr.. Hubbard took
the matter into his own hands and now has
laborers at work grading and improving
them. Park avenue, which forms tho
boundary OF the property, Is being made
into magnificent drive. The much-talked
Of extension OF Massachusetts, avenue
would carry that highway directly through
Mr.. nubbard's ground, but he will not
spend u penny to improve it, thinking that
the Government SHOULD do SO.
The syndicate which bought Kaloram a
will follow Mr.. Ilubbard's example and
grade the streets running through their
property at their own expense.
John Sprigg Poole has sold to Albert G
Strars, for the sum OF $4,000, lots l0l and

has also sold to Caroline Farnham Curtlss
OF Montgomery County, Md, for $4,000
lot SO, in square 3li, bounded by N and NJ
aud Eleventh and Twelfth streets north

Mr.. Chris. Rupert will shortly begin the
demolition Of the houses on the ground sit
uated on Pennsylvania avenue, between
Second and Third streets southeast, which
was recently purchased by him, to make
way for several new buildings to be erected
on the property. Among the houses to be
torn down 10 an old landmark, well known
to the people of East Washington as the
Meriiman place. This house has been the
residence OF the Merriman family for the
past fifty years.

A valuable Test.

A yeiy interesting aud valuable test OF

place to-day on the vacant lot corner OF
New Jersey avenue and c ST. n. W. a frame
shanty had been built, painted on the outside
with Vulcan paint and inside with the
Soteria, Nos. and Q, which Ia intended for
rough work, such as inside rafters, joists,
&C., that are exposed to heat from dues.
On top OF the shahty was placed large
bundle OF shavlngs saturated with coal oil,
at the rear panel filled with saturated
shavlngs and on the inside another barrel
full OF shayipgs thoroughly saturated WIN
oil. The rear barrel was ignitcd, 1t burned
rapidly. The shsyings on the roof caught
and made great blaze. Then MI. Keys
the Washington agent Of the company
threw one gallon OF oil on the burning mass
The flames reached height OF 30 feet. Mr.
Keys did not intend that the inside barrel
should catch ut that time, but 1t did, making
The test more severe. After the fire had
been raging fer twenty minutes and the
barrels that contained the saturated
shayipgs had burned completely up, the
structure still stood intact. The flames

$4,000 worth Of stock has been sold. \
large factory Will be built, and II is expected
that within two or three years the enter

Many Southern cities are now laying asphalt
pavements, and the use Of bicycles In this
section Of the couutry is fast increasing.
This trade will naturally come to Washing

Extension OF the Pennsylvania Rail
road Dining Car Service.

The dining cars Of the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company's through trains have proven
such popular and convenient feature OF
travel on that line that the company has
arranged to extend the service to its trains
running between New York and the Ma
tional Capital. No innovation In the older
methods of railroad travel has contributed
more to enhance the comfort of the traveller
than the dining car. 1t Is the connecting
link between the parlor car and the sleeper,
which perfects the system by providing for
the sustenance OF the inner man.
The cars are constructed with a view to
their use as dining cars only. Ample room
is devoted to the kitchen, which ia equipped
with all the appliances known to modern
cookery.
Commencing June 10, dining ears will
be added to the service OF the New York
Limited Express, leaving Washington for
New York at 9:40 a. m, and the Con-
eressioDal Limited Express, leaving at 4
p. IN. for New York.
